Re: AT&T East End STX Out?

Well, aren't y'all very blessed on the East End of STX. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with ATT, not in my neighborhood, day before yesterday.

I live 400' up above La Grange in Lil la Grange. Our ATT went out the day before the storm. I was told 3 towers were not functioning in our area. I must drive at least 1/2 mile down to get a signal.

We just got wifi back this afternoon, late. For that, I am grateful. We still have no services except when we run the generator. I'm blessed that it runs everything. I just hate feeding the generator every other day to the tune of $50. Rumor has we will get power back on the 20th. Who knows?!?!?!

Re: AT&T East End STX Out?

Yes we are blessed but still have no phone service. I feel blessed because this storm went north and we were spared what St. Thomas, St. John and the BVI is suffering. Our lack of service here is frustrating but nothing like what they are experiencing.

Rosesisland, we also live in Lil Lagrange, but on the side of the hill facing north above Mahogany Road. We have not lost AT&T but signal has been weak. Have not had Viya service since the storm. Power came back Tuesday night, but everything east of us up Mahogany Road is still dark as of last night. LIke you, I'm not complaining; it could have been much worse!

Re: AT&T East End STX Out?

Ernieandmaryjo, I'm at the last house on Rainbow Drive facing west 400' up. We got VIYA last night, out this a.m. Then later on again. Just got ATT back this morning. Still no WAPA, but, large full house generator guzzling up cash to fill 18 gallon tank every other day. Ouch!
Could be much worse and I've had it much worse before. Totally grateful today to finally be"connected" to the world and my children again.

Re: AT&T East End STX Out?

AT&T's generator at Cotton Valley was not running this morning.
Broadband VI had to store our generator up there, we will run out of battery power some time this evening. BBVI will get up there as soon as possible after the storm.

Re: AT&T East End STX Out?

I guess stealing copper wire is not selling too hot on the black market right now so these scumbag, low life, vultures probably figure you can get good $$ for a generator OR they stole it to use themselves.
